Goodies Repeats on Television

Now this age old subject is still going on its seemingly endless journey. We now have our box sets that came out last year. (Which was our second wish! So we must be thankful for it). So… A big thanks very much to Auntie Beeb!

But, the BBC still don’t really care for showing repeats of The Goodies on their channels. (Maybe they are a bit miffed that they went to itv on the whole.)

But you know, So what?

As a fan all I really care about is the show. And I do not care what channel it went to. The Goodies brought a lot of fun and joy to people. There are more important things. But, repeating Goodies is indeed one of those things.

There are quite a few channels it could be on such as Gold, Dave and BBCFour. That are good other places to watch repeats of The Goodies.

The Slapstick festival are hosting a Laughter in Lock down. This will now be permanent place here for the Goodies and Slapstick Festival. From the Slapstick website.... In recognition of the unique circumstances we find ourselves in at the moment with the ongoing C-19 pandemic, Slapstick have taken the decision to try to make a small difference in the only way we know how – by bringing some laughter into your lives.
